     A
     Are you alone now  did you lose the monkey
     D                                   A
     He gave you backaches and now you slouch
     A
     He didn't mean it  he's just a dumb ape
     D                         A
     Reading Playboy  on your couch
     D
     And now it's time to say
     E
     What I forgot to say
     A                  F#m
     Baby, baby, baby, C'mon what's wrong
     A                  D        E
     It's a Radiation Vibe I'm groovin' on
     A                   E             D
     Don't it make you wanna get some sun
     E6    E   E6    E   E6    E
     Shine on, shine on, shine on

     Repeat Intro w/Shaft-style wah-wah

     Verse II:

     I went to Pittsburgh  and joined a pro team
     Talk about a bad dream  I broke my knee
     But I can still croon  and make the girls swoon
     Isn't that the way life's  supposed to be
     And now it's time to say  what I forgot to say

     Chorus II:

     Baby, baby, baby, C'mon what's wrong
     It's a Radiation Vibe I'm groovin' on
     Don't it make you wanna get some sun
     Shine on, shine on, shine on
     E6    E   E6    E   E6    E
     Shine on, shine on, shine ooooon

     1/2 verse with "Doo doo doo doo" vocals

     And now it's time to say  what I forgot to say

     Repeat chorus I and II, end on A (let it ring)
